Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, the European Union has radically reduced its imports of coal, oil and natural gas from Russia. In fact, the bloc's stated goal is to eliminate all Russian fossil fuel imports by 2027. But there is one glaring exception to this trend: Liquefied Natural Gas - or LNG, which the EU has been importing in record volumes from Russia. Video features report by DW’s Jack Parrock, as well as expert analysis from Carole Nakhle, CEO and founder of Crystol Energy, a consulting group.

Replacing Russian pipeline gas with Russian LNG. Thats a smart EU move.

@yp77738yp77739 7 месяцев назад

And paying much more for it, which genius thought that one up. The other nonsense is that they buy more Ukrainian piped gas too, again at an inflated price, and where does the Ukrainian gas come from, yep, Russia. Anyone might reasonably wonder whether the real intent of the sanctions was to screw the consumers, come to think of it, that’s the only possible rational explanation.

@gaborrajnai6213 7 месяцев назад

No its not cheaper. Russian gas on pipelines generally have fixed price contracts, which is attached on the oil prices. Spot market works in the way, that an LNG tanker ship starts up from a Russian port, and its cargo is in bid while it moves, and it will travel to the port of the highest bidder, so its price is not fixed to anything.@@yp77738yp77739

@sturmeko 7 месяцев назад

Actually it is quite logical move, with LNG Russia have to compete with all other suppliers in world market, while on pipelines it has monopoly, so selling LNG reduces profits for Russia, also capacity is not the same, at the same time there isn't much point restricting purchase of Russian LNG as it can just easily be sold elsewhere.

Don’t know where you got that from, but as a German that information sounds very wrong to me. We’ve had the CDU as a ruling party 3 years ago and they’ve been the main government for about 16 years in a row, give or take. In their legislation they’ve canceled nuclear power and slept on renewable energy to replace nuclear energy. Thus we are in the awkward situation now where we rely on coal, oil and gas to have a comfortable way of life. As of 2022 Germany has 47% of electricity from renewable sources and 17% „heating“ (energy in form of warmth) from renewable sources.

With some effort, it should be possible to reduce the use/consumption of methane gas enough to avoid any imports from Russia (both liquefied by ship and gas by pipeline), by the end of 2025. Find the report by searching for "EU can stop Russian gas imports by 2025" (by Ember, E3g, Bellona & RAP)

@NikolaiBeier 7 месяцев назад

According to the analysis by Bruegel, "The European Union is ready for the 2023-24 winter gas season", the EU imported methane from Russia amounting to about 485 TWh gross calorific value of energy, in the 12 month period from August 2022 to July 2023. (This amount is 1379 TWh less energy from Russia, than 3 years earlier, before the the disruptions of the gas supply started.) The energy from wind & solar power, the heat pumps and the nuclear power plants that are repaired since last winter, is estimated to save around 74 TWh this coming winter. (To that can be added the savings from changed habits, greater awareness on reducing wasted energy, etc.) Les and less of the activity in the EU countries depends on methane.

@PranicEnergy 7 месяцев назад

You can do all the analysis you want. But at the end of the day, you will find that you need cheap Russian oil and LNG for European factories to manufacture goods competitively.

It is still not too late to say sorry to Russia for trying to push NATO to its doorstep.

Sanctioning cheaper pipeline gas for expensive LNG imports, Smart

@thegreatdane3627 7 месяцев назад

There are no sanctions on natural gas yet. It was russia's choice to reduce the gas flow.

You should be ashamed that you follow USA demand to push Ukraine against Russia, but you can't fight in Ukraine and can't really sanction Russia, Therefore, all the sacrifices made by Ukraine will eventually be in vain, so who pushed the young hunter's bear cave in the first place?

The US has a massive LNG surplus, no need to get it from anywhere else.

@fabianabongo6284 7 месяцев назад

@@vulkar59well, if US had enough supplies to satisfy Europe, EU wouldn't need Russian gas. US has plenty of gas (not like Russia) but it is also the largest consumer of gas, so it's net export volume isn't as big as you may imagine. American gas companies need secondary sources to increase their domestic and foreign supplies.

It is not russian gas in the first place. It is extracted in Russia but belongs to multinational consortium who had built LNG factory. Russia is not getting anything from this, not even taxes

What is really sad, is to see a great European Country like Germany become an obidient province of Washington. Their gas pipelines were blown up, yet they remained silent, because they knew there was their master behind that.

the pipeline belongs to russia, and russia cut the gasflow a month before the pipeline was damaged. So why should the Germans care?

American taxpayers contribute to defeat our enemies. And the pipeline was already shutdown before it blew up. The Russians tried to blackmail us without success. We told them it wouldn’t work and they refused to listen. 🇺🇸🇩🇪🇺🇦

“One sometimes hears about ‘creeping deindustrialization - well, it’s not just creeping anymore,” said Hans-Jürgen Völz, chief economist at BVMW, an association that lobbies for Germany’s Mittelstand, the thousands of small- and medium-sized firms that form the backbone of the country’s economy.
